BROOKE, 34, and her partner Kewene, 28, from Queensland, Australia, recently hit the headlines as they made the controversial decision to have their baby's face lasered. When Brooke's baby Kingsley arrived, he was born with a birthmark covering half of his face. Brooke told Truly: "Instantly the moment he was born they knew it was a birthmark, but they didn't know what type yet. Then they got confirmation that day that it was a Port Wine Stain birthmark and we found out about the Sturge-Weber Syndrome." With this distressing news, the couple started Googling what this could mean for Kingsley's future. After finding out how this could affect Kingsley's life, they made the incredibly difficult decision to laser Kingsley's face at only five months old. The family then decided to raise awareness for the condition and shared their story online, however the hate they received was a real shock. Brooke said: "One person told me to put my child down, others said: 'you're an abusive parent, you shouldn't be doing this to your child', that we were 'horrible people and shouldn't have kids'... So that hurt a little bit." Despite the tirade of online judgement and hate the family received, they knew they made the correct decision for their son and still stand by it today. They added: "We'll keep spreading awareness for our son's condition, keep going up from here and just making sure our children have the best life."
